I don't get this - it seems ridiculously easy to blackout in the Spitfire when trying to turn with a 109... I thought blackout/redout was a property of physical forces on the pilot. How does the plane affect this? Shouldn't the same force cause an effect at the same threshold no matter what the plane?

Maybe I need to find a slower plane (as I'm still using the old aviator layout, which is either WEP, 55% or 0% throttle)...?

Have the conditions for unlocking aircraft been changed as previously discussed?

Yeah, I got the Bombs for the P51 after I destroyed a single ground target

By the way, did anyone fly the P51 in arcade mode? This plane now behaves worse than before...
Its like it wants to stall and spin now sometimes. Really strange!

Oh and is the TA unlock now for EVERYONE?

I've jammed them while in landing mode going down to fast.

Yes I believe one win in MP will unlock the plane. But the turn rate sucks.

I got the Ta after I won my first online match. And I didn't buy the DLC.

flynlion: Bombsight remains the same...

yes, I like this feature too. Before you could use your flaps and gear to decrease your speed in a fraction of a second, now if you are going too fast and apply landing flaps you will jammed them, just like in il2 1946 I seem to be able to set my flaps to take off more often now.

I wonder if the same happens if you are going too fast when lowering the gear, has anyone tried this to see if you get "Gear Damaged"?
